The important of industrial rollers with low rotational inertia and lightweight, high-stiffness carbon fiber rollers exhibit lower inertia to acceleration and deceleration (rotational or translational) and can run at higher speeds. Composite rollers reduce waste while increasing productivity and efficiency, and provide better performance than traditional steel or aluminum rollers, particularly when wide web widths, heavy loads, and faster speeds are necessary.

Carbon Fiber Rollers

Composites Roller Advantages

High rigid, Low-Inertia, and low drag compared with traditional metal rollers
Dimensional stability and vibration damping at higher speeds.
Line speed was achieved almost immediately.
Large diameters carbon fiber tubes for rollers are available
Lightweight, low-inertia carbon fiber rollers allow faster web speeds, reduce vibration, decrease waste, and improve production efficiency
